Abstract
Nurses across the nation are stepping forward as leaders in response to the rapid and continuous change in health care and the acute needs of vulnerable populations. Caring for vulnerable populations is inherent in the nurse's role. However, caring for those in vulnerable states goes beyond the bedside. Nurses are in a unique position to bring their experiences and knowledge in patient care, quality, safety, cost containment, and wellness, as members of boards, elected officials, and nonprofit directors. Their impact is significant, as they balance critical thinking skills, financial knowledge, and compassion in order to influence executive decision-making. This article describes the importance of nurses serving on boards from evidence-based as well as personal perspectives, and presents specific examples of nurses' impact on vulnerable populations and those on the brink of vulnerability, in schools, communities, health-care institutions, and beyond. Will you also rise to the call to serve?
